Joy Builds Resilience
"Joy, collected over time, fuels resilience - ensuring we'll have reservoirs of emotional strength when hard things do happen."

Every moment of joy we collect becomes a spark of strength for the future. These moments might be small but profound: a laugh with chosen family, a song that feels like home, or the courage to show up as our true selves. These joys build resilience, creating an emotional reservoir we can draw on when challenges arise. Being a Joyful Queer means recognizing and celebrating these moments, knowing they’re not just fleeting happiness but the building blocks of our strength and hope.
